When any

made in any of the cases mentioned in the preceding section, such person may
petition the Windsor County Court for a re-assessment of damages, and such
proceedings shall be had in said Court on said petition as are provided by law
for the assessment of damages for land taken for highways, except that the

appurtenances thereof, and using said water powers and lands after their award
shall have been made and the amount thereof tendered by them.
